Chinese tomb sculpture, rich and diverse, is inextricably linked to the culture and thought of this legendary society and offers keen insight into its history and art. The Chinese in the first millennium B.C. buried servants and animals alive to accompany and serve their masters in the afterworld. Imaginative and detailed ceramic objects gradually replaced human sacrifices, and these were produced in astonishing variety: houses, farm buildings, animals, and bizarre guardian creatures; handsome horses and amazing life-sized terra-cotta warriors; elegant ladies and vibrant dancers and musicians. These awe-inspiring works of art modelled in clay have been buried in the earth for hundreds of years. Published in cooperation with the People's Republic of China, The Quest for Eternity reveals their lasting artistic value and profound historical significance.
